I keep buying more synthesizers while I already have more than enough. I buy more than I play with them.
I grew up obsessing over synths in the '70s and '80s (I listened to Yes, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis etc.). Now I'm a programmer who writes (more accurately wrote) software synthesizer apps, and I find it amusing that my cheap smartphone from ten years ago has orders of magnitude more sound generation power than those keyboard-based beasts from my childhood did.
That being said, I would probably be willing to kill somebody to get my hands on an original Moog to play around with.
Yeah those Moog's are insane. But the Behringer clones are also super nice. And imo nothing beats the sound of an analog synth. With those new Behringer clones you also have a USB connection supporting midi, so you can mix them very well with any DAW.
Something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vjAeTh4DnY&list=RD1vjAeTh4DnY&start_radio=1 ?
No I don't have money for the real ones. I mostly have Behringer clones.
I wouldn't know the difference. Yours still looks nice though.
Thanks!
Original synths from the 80's cost thousands. Behringer started to clone them, as the copyrights expired and those expensive old machines haven't been made for a long time. Those copies cost 100 to 500 euro's each. Only a few bigger ones cost a bit more. So the difference is either spend 5000 euros for a 40 year old device or 300 for a new clone, including community tweaks and a 3 year warranty.
Some of Behringers stuff is quite decent, especially for the price.
